Jérôme, you know what we say on AA when we read this: We're seriously doubting your commitment to this hobby!

Hi Bart,

Vers gréât report. I total l'y agréé tout tour best 3. Concerning Alexia 2, they have a great potentiel, but I find Thatcher ml os not matching very well with Wilson.

Concerning dcs Rossini, it sounds amazing

Would be great to met you at the next show..

thanks for the Report, Bart.

I am wondering about the many negative comments about the sound of Sonus Faber Speakers at those exhibitions.

Recently a HIFI Show took place in Vienna and the only enjoyable setup for me was Artkustik electronic paired with SF O3.

15K.
They were driven by Jadis gear.

"The world's first electromagnetic floating cone driver". We felt it in our hands. very light!
Thanks Bart for visiting us. We hope you enjoyed listening and you are always most welcome together with friends to explore our sound with the neccessary attention at my place.

Hi Robert, I agree with you.
Sonus Faber set-ups at shows tend to sound (much) worse than at dealer's shops, where they are usually set up better.
I've heard most of their speakers, from all series, sound pretty good to truly excellent, on different locations (different dealers in the Antwerp region, Ivan).
